Struggling Aston Villa will hope to jump-start their season away at Premier League rivals Brentford in the third round of the Carabao Cup.

The Villans have been far below par in the opening weeks of the 2025/26 campaign – going goalless and taking just two points from their first four league games.

Unai Emery's side are one place off the bottom of the Premier League as a result and have already been beaten away at the Gtech Community Stadium this term.

Dango Ouattara was the difference-maker when the pair met in August as he scored early to hand Keith Andrews his first win as Bees boss.

Brentford added another point against West London rivals Chelsea on Saturday courtesy of Fábio Carvalho's stoppage-time equaliser to offer fans further hope after a summer of great change.
